Practicalities
• Common vision and frame of reference across district, school, and classrooms
• Opportunity for backward design of literacy programs (district and/or school-wide)
• Context for all decisions (human resource allocations, budgets, curriculum adoption, professional development, etc.)
• Incremental (yet cohesive) progress

Potential Pitfalls
• Administrators catch vision and are ready to move forward before teachers have had an opportunity for understanding and buy-in. Principals must be purposeful in bringing faculty along.
• This approach requires different thinking. Therefore all stakeholders must have an operational understanding to avoid a weak-link sabotage.

Potential Pitfalls, cont.
• Change initiatives must be an integral part of all professional development activities.
• Change initiatives must be communicated and evaluated as an expectation for all.
